OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Health disparities are differences in disease incidence, prevalence, morbidity, mortality, or survival in one group compared to the general population. Health disparities are a product of macro-level social, political and economic mechanisms and intermediary social determinants of health such as living and working conditions and social networks.
This presentation presents an approach to developing “upstream” informatics interventions that focus on the social, political, economic and physical contexts in which health is (re-)produced. The presentation outlines key insights drawn from three community-based research projects in the United States focused on developing and evaluating upstream informatics interventions.
This free guest lecture is from the Translation Health Sciences programme.
